System and method for customizing information for display to multiple users via multiple displays

Abstract

A method and system are configured to generate user-specific information, such as wager-related information, for display on one or more display devices of a user. The system is configured to store user preferences, to determine a location of the user and a configuration of the user's display device(s), and to use the location information and at least one of the user preference information and group information to generate the user-specific information, and to configure the user-specific information based upon the configuration of the user display device(s), wherein when there is more than one user display device, the user-information and configuration thereof may vary for each device.
